To celebrate Brewery Vivant’s 10th anniversary on Sunday, the brewery released a pub-only beer on draft and in cans on Thursday called J’aison.
The beer has never been made commercially but was the first recipe co-owner Jason Spaulding worked on while defining the styles of beer the brewery would become known for.
“Our vision for Vivant has always been to make beers that take inspiration from traditional European styles but with the addition of American ingenuity,” Spaulding said. “This petite saison is brewed with orange peel and Tellicherry black peppercorns it’s quite drinkable at 5.4% ABV and has the sweet aroma of oranges with a bit of a kick from the peppercorns.”
